Attribution

This article - which to have is great - needs attribution here (and not only in the article history) of where the initial entry came from. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:42, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reminder. Please proceed. If nobody has time for this presently, I'll eventually get around to it after the somewhat more urgent mainspace fixes. --Francis Schonken (talk) 09:48, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I filled the template (first time ever correct if wrong) for the Clavier-Übung, but not the other. In prose: Clavier-Übung III was almost exclusively edited be Mathsci and has been stable over years. In Clavier-Übung III#Reception and influence, he created most of the content (not layout) of this initial entry. It would have been clearer if you had not merged both sources in the initial entry but had made the beginning of this article in two steps. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:21, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, Smerus, this isn't the forum, so duly collapsed. El_C 19:40, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

First, at a glance, this article looks to be of an excellent quality. Top tier musicology, truly. Secondly, this probably isn't the forum to touch on this, but I note that several users (not you, Gerda!) have asked me to look into possible interaction ban violations on Francis Schonken's part vis-à-vis Mathsci, but as far as this merger is concerned, intuitively, it doesn't appear to be such a violation to me. But even if it does end up being deemed as such, I'm afraid I, myself, simply do not have the stamina to deal with it at the present moment (see Grand Central Station renovation notice), so I'm just gonna let other admins pick up the slack concerning any of that.

Can someone please explain the rather mystifying comments by El_C above? Whether or not this was the forum to raise IBAN issues, El_C has chosen to raise them here, and as they could be material to discussion here and in the ongoing related discussions at Talk:Clavier-Übung III I for one. (and maybe other editors). would like to know what this is all about.--Smerus (talk) 19:22, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Reception history of Jane Austen which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 05:18, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested addition

Something should be said about Reicha's 1803 36 Fugues (Paris), some of which were composed on themes from Bach. Footpathandstile (talk) 01:17, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

According to the article on Reicha's collection, there's only one fugue based on a theme by Bach. Further, that article doesn't indicate any connection to Bach' music in general – quite the opposite. Unless some significant material by musicologists can be cited to support the proposal, there is no need for it. OTOH, the article would be improved by removing most of the pictures. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 02:05, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
